Connecting Your Speakers

Speaker Configuration

The following table indicates the channels you should use depending on the number of speakers that you have.

No matter how many speakers you use, a powered subwoofer is recommended for a really powerful and solid bass.

To get the best from your surround sound system, you need to set the speaker settings automatically ( page 34) or manually ( page 54).

Number of speakers2345677
Front speakers
Center speaker
Surround speakers
Surround back speaker*1*2
Surround back speakers*2
Front high speakers*2

1 If you're using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the SURROUND BACK or FRONT HIGH L terminals.
2 Front high and surround back speakers cannot be used at the same time.

Connecting the Speaker Cables

The following illustration shows how to connect the speakers to each pair of terminals. If you're using only one surround back speaker, connect it to the SURROUND BACK or FRONT HIGH L terminals.

Tip

  • You can specify whether surround back or front high speakers are connected in the "Speaker Configuration" menu ( page 54) or during Audyssey 2EQ® Room Correction and Speaker Setup ( page 34).

ONKYO TXNR616 - Tip - 1

Screw-type speaker terminals

Strip 1/2'' to 5/8'' (12 to 15mm ) of insulation from the ends of the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly, as shown.

ONKYO TXNR616 - Screw-type speaker terminals - 1

Push-type speaker terminals

Strip 3/8'' to 1/2'' (10 to 12mm ) of insulation from the ends of the speaker cables, and twist the bare wires tightly, as shown.

ONKYO TXNR616 - Push-type speaker terminals - 1

Banana Plugs (North American models)

  • If you are using banana plugs, tighten the speaker terminal before inserting the banana plug.
  • Do not insert the speaker code directly into the center hole of the speaker terminal.

Attaching the Speaker Cable Labels

The speaker terminals are color-coded for identification purpose.

SpeakerColor
Front left, Front high left, Zone 2 leftWhite
Front right, Front high right, Zone 2 rightRed
CenterGreen
Surround leftBlue
Surround rightGray
Surround back leftBrown
Surround back rightTan

The supplied speaker cable labels are also color-coded and you should attach them to the positive (+) side of each speaker cable in accordance with the table above. Then all you need to do is to match the color of each label to the corresponding speaker terminal.

ONKYO TXNR616 - Attaching the Speaker Cable Labels - 1

Speaker Connection Precautions

Read the following before connecting your speakers:

  • (North American and Taiwanese models) You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 6 and 16 ohms. If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in amp protection circuit may be activated.
  • (European, Australian and Asian models) You can connect speakers with an impedance of between 4 and 16 ohms. If the impedance of any of the connected speakers is 4 ohms or more, but less than 6 ohms, be sure to set the minimum speaker impedance to "4ohms" ( page 54). If you use speakers with a lower impedance, and use the amplifier at high volume levels for a long period of time, the built-in protection circuit may be activated.

  • Disconnect the power cord from the wall outlet before making any connections.

  • Read the instructions supplied with your speakers.
  • Pay close attention to speaker wiring polarity. In other words, connect positive (+) terminals only to positive (+) terminals, and negative (-) terminals only to negative (-) terminals. If you get them the wrong way around, the sound will be out of phase and will sound unnatural.
  • Unnecessarily long, or very thin speaker cables may affect the sound quality and should be avoided.
  • Be careful not to short the positive and negative wires. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
  • Make sure the metal core of the wire does not have contact with the AV receiver's rear panel. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.

ONKYO TXNR616 - Speaker Connection Precautions - 1

  • Don't connect more than one cable to each speaker terminal. Doing so may damage the AV receiver.
  • Don't connect one speaker to several terminals.

ONKYO TXNR616 - Speaker Connection Precautions - 2

Using Dipole Speakers

ONKYO TXNR616 - Using Dipole Speakers - 1

You can use dipole speakers for the surround and surround back speakers. Dipole speakers output the same sound in two directions.

Dipole speakers typically have an arrow printed on them to indicate how they should be positioned. The surround dipole speakers (a) should be positioned so that their arrows point toward the TV/screen, while the surround back dipole speakers (b) should be positioned so that their arrows point toward each other, as shown.

Using Powered Subwoofer

ONKYO TXNR616 - Using Powered Subwoofer - 1
Powered subwoofer

ONKYO TXNR616 - Using Powered Subwoofer - 2

To find the best position for your subwoofer, while playing a movie or some music with good bass, experiment by placing your subwoofer at various positions within the room, and choose the one that provides the most satisfying results.

You can connect the powered subwoofer with two SUBWOOFER PRE OUT jacks respectively.

The same signal is output from each jack.

Tip

  • If your subwoofer is unpowered and you're using an external amplifier, connect the subwoofer pre out jack to an input on the amplifier.

Bi-amping the Front Speakers

Important:

  • When making the bi-amping connections, be sure to remove the jumper bars that link the speakers' tweeter (high) and woofer (low) terminals.
  • Bi-amping can be used only with speakers that support bi-amping. Refer to your speaker manual.

Bi-amping provides improved bass and treble performance. When bi-amping is used, the AV receiver is able to drive up to a 5.1 speaker system in the main room. Once you've completed the bi-amping connections as shown and turned on the AV receiver, you must set the speaker setting to enable bi-amping ( page 54).

Using Basic Functions

Using the Automatic Speaker Setup

With the supplied calibrated microphone, Audyssey 2EQ® automatically determines the number of speakers connected, their size for purposes of bass management, optimum crossover frequencies to the subwoofer (if present), and distances from the primary listening position. Audyssey 2EQ then removes the distortion caused by room acoustics by capturing room acoustical problems over the listening area in both the frequency and time domain. The result is clear, well-balanced sound for everyone. Audyssey 2EQ can be used with Audyssey Dynamic EQ® and Audyssey Dynamic Volume® ( page 59). Before using this function, connect and position all of your speakers.

Audyssey 2EQ offers two ways of measuring: the "Audyssey Quick Start" and "Audyssey 2EQ Full Calibration".

"Audyssey Quick Start" uses the measurement from one position to perform the speaker setting only.
- "Audyssey 2EQ Full Calibration" uses the measurement from three positions to correct room response in addition to the speaker setting.

The more positions are used in measuring, the better the listening environment will become. We recommend using a measurement from three positions to create the best listening environment.

The Quick Start takes 2 minutes and Full Calibration takes about 10 minutes.

Total measurement time varies depending on the number of speakers.

Measurement procedure

To create a listening environment in your home theater that all listeners will enjoy, Audyssey 2EQ takes measurements at up to three positions within the listening area. Position the microphone at ear height of a seated listener with the microphone tip pointed directly at the ceiling using a tripod. Do not hold the microphone in your hand during measurements as this will produce inaccurate results.

① First measurement position

Also referred to as the Main Listening Position, this refers to the most central position where one would normally sit within the listening environment.

Audyssey 2EQ uses the measurements from this position to calculate speaker distance, level, polarity, and the optimum crossover value for the subwoofer.

② Second measurement position

The right side of the listening area.

③ Third measurement position

The left side of the listening area.

The distances from position 1 to 2 and 1 to 3 must be at least 1 meter (3.3 ft.).

ONKYO TXNR616 - ③ Third measurement position - 1

① to ③: Listening position

Note

  • Make the room as quiet as possible. Background noise and Radio Frequency Interference (RFI) can disrupt the room measurements. Close windows, televisions, radios, air conditioners, fluorescent lights, home appliances, light dimmers, or other devices. Turn off the cell phone (even if it is not in use) or place it away from all audio electronics.
  • The microphone picks up test tones played through each speaker as Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup runs.
  • Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup cannot be performed while a pair of headphones is connected.

1 Turn on the AV receiver and the connected TV. On the TV, select the input to which the AV receiver is connected.

Note

  • Please note that THX recommends any THX main speakers be set to "80Hz(THX)". If you set up your speakers using Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup, please make sure manually that any THX speakers are set to "80Hz(THX)" crossover ( page 54).
  • Sometimes due to the electrical complexities of subwoofer and the interaction with the room, THX recommends setting the level and the distance of the subwoofer manually.
  • Sometimes due to interaction with the room, you may notice irregular results when setting the level and/or distance of the main speakers. If this happens, THX recommends setting them manually.

Using a Powered Subwoofer

If you're using a powered subwoofer and it outputs very low-frequency sound at a low volume level, it may not be detected by Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup.

If the "Subwoofer" appears on the "Review Speaker Configuration" screen as "No", increase the subwoofer's volume to the half-way point, set it to its highest crossover frequency, and then try running Audyssey 2EQ Room Correction and Speaker Setup again. Note that if the volume is set too high and the sound distorts, detection issues may occur, so use an appropriate volume level. If the subwoofer has a low-pass filter switch, set it to Off or Direct. Refer to your subwoofer's instruction manual for details.

Dialogue Normalization

Dialogue Normalization (DialogNorm) is a feature of Dolby Digital, which is used to keep the programs at the same average listening level so the user does not have to change the volume control between Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby TrueHD programs. When playing back software which has been encoded in Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus and Dolby TrueHD, sometimes you may see a brief message in the front panel display which will read "DialogNorm: X dB" (X being a numeric value). The display is showing how the program level relates with THX calibration level. If you want to play the program at calibrated theatrical levels, you may wish to adjust the volume. For example, if you see the following message: "DialogNorm: + 4 dB" in the front panel display, to keep the overall output level at THX calibrated loudness, just turn down the volume control by 4 dB. However, unlike a movie theater where the playback loudness is preset, you can choose your preferred volume setting for best enjoyment.

Metadata Compatible

On:

When Metadata Compatible is set to "On", valid metadata is transmitted via the HDMI connections, and can be used by other devices in the system.

Off:

When Metadata Compatible is set to "Off", metadata is not transmitted via the HDMI connections.

The HDMI connection in your system is used to deliver uncompressed digital audio and video information from one device to the next. There is also additional information about this digital content that can be delivered. Such additional information is referred to as "metadata".

Metadata Compatible mode should be used when there are home theater components in your system, such as Blu-ray disc players, set top boxes and displays that use this additional metadata. For example, Metadata Compatible mode should be set to ON when there are THX Media Director™ Enabled devices in the system. This ensures that this additional information can be received by your Onkyo AVR and can be sent to other devices that are connected in your home theater system, with no interruption.

THX Loudness Plus

THX Loudness Plus is a new volume control technology featured in THX Ultra2 Plus™ and THX Select2 Plus™ Certified receivers. With THX Loudness Plus, home theater audiences can now experience the rich details in a surround mix at any volume level. A consequence of turning the volume below Reference Level is that certain sound elements can be lost or perceived differently by the listener. THX Loudness Plus compensates for the tonal and spatial shifts that occur when the volume is reduced by intelligently adjusting ambient surround channel levels and frequency response. This enables users experience the true impact of soundtracks regardless of the volume setting. THX Loudness Plus is automatically applied when listening in any THX listening mode. The new THX Cinema, THX Music, and THX Games modes are tailored to apply the proper THX Loudness Plus settings for each type of content.

Audyssey

The tone for each speaker is set automatically by Audyssey 2EQ® Room Correction and Speaker Setup. To enable the following settings, you must first perform the Room Correction and Speaker Setup ( page 34).

  • These technologies cannot be used when:
    -a pair of headphones is connected, or
  • either Pure Audio (European, Australian and Asian models) or Direct listening mode is selected.

The Dynamic EQ indicator will light.

With Audyssey Dynamic EQ, you can enjoy great sound even when listening at low volume levels.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. It does so by selecting the correct frequency response and surround volume levels moment-by-moment so that the content sounds the way it was created at any volume level — not just at reference level.

Reference Level

Audyssey Dynamic EQ Reference Level Offset

0dB:

This should be selected for movie contents.

5dB:

Select this setting for content that has a very wide dynamic range, such as classical music.

10dB:

Select this setting for jazz or other music that has a wider dynamic range. This setting should also be selected for TV content as that is usually mixed at 10 dB below film reference.

15dB:

Select this setting for pop/rock music or other program material that is mixed at very high listening levels and has a compressed dynamic range.

Movies are mixed in rooms calibrated for film reference. To achieve the same reference level in a home theater system each speaker level must be adjusted so that -30 dBFS band-limited (500 Hz to 2000 Hz) pink noise produces 75 dB sound pressure level at the listening position. A home theater system automatically calibrated by Audyssey 2EQ will play at reference level when the master volume control is set to the 0 dB position. At that level you can hear the mix as the mixers heard it.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ is referenced to the standard film mix level. It makes adjustments to maintain the reference response and surround envelopment when the volume is turned down from 0 dB. However, film reference level is not always used in music or other non-film content.

Audyssey Dynamic EQ Reference Level Offset provides three offsets from the film level reference (5 dB, 10 dB, and 15 dB) that can be selected when the mix level of the content is not within the standard.

Note

  • If "Dynamic EQ" setting is set to "Off", this technology cannot be used.

Dynamic Volume

Note

  • If you want to use Audyssey Dynamic EQ or Audyssey Dynamic Volume® with THX listening modes, set the "Loudness Plus" setting to "Off" and set "Preserve THX Settings" to "No" ( page 56).
  • If you make Dynamic Volume active, "Dynamic EQ" is set to "On". The Dynamic Vol indicator will light.
  • When "Dynamic EQ" is set to "Off", "Dynamic Volume" is automatically switched to "Off".

About Audyssey Dynamic EQ®

Audyssey Dynamic EQ solves the problem of deteriorating sound quality as volume is decreased by taking into account human perception and room acoustics. Dynamic EQ selects the correct frequency response and surround levels moment-by-moment at any user-selected volume setting. The result is bass response, tonal balance, and surround impression that remain constant despite changes in volume. Dynamic EQ combines information from incoming source levels with actual output sound levels in the room, a prerequisite for delivering a loudness correction solution. Audyssey Dynamic EQ works well by itself. However, if Audyssey 2EQ® is on, the two technologies work in tandem to provide well-balanced sound for every listener at any volume level.

About Audyssey Dynamic Volume®

Audyssey Dynamic Volume solves the problem of large variations in volume level between television programs, commercials, and between the soft and loud passages of movies. Dynamic Volume looks at the preferred volume setting by the user and then monitors how the volume of program material is being perceived by listeners in real time to decide whether an adjustment is needed. Whenever necessary, Dynamic Volume makes the necessary rapid or gradual adjustments to maintain the desired playback volume level while optimizing the dynamic range. Audyssey Dynamic EQ is integrated into Dynamic Volume so that as the playback volume is adjusted automatically, the perceived bass response, tonal balance, surround impression and dialog clarity remain the same whether watching movies, flipping between television channels or changing from stereo to surround sound content.

Network

After modifying the network settings, you must confirm the changes by executing "Save".

This section explains how to configure the AV receiver's network settings manually.

If your router's DHCP server is enabled, you don't need to change any of these settings, as the AV receiver is set to use DHCP to configure itself automatically by default (i.e., DHCP is set to "Enable"). If, however, your router's DHCP server is disabled (you're for example using static IP), you'll need to configure these settings yourself, in which case, a knowledge of Ethernet networking is essential.

What's DHCP?

DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol) is used by routers, computers, the AV receiver, and other devices to automatically configure themselves on a network.

What's DNS?

The DNS (Domain Name System) translates domain names into IP addresses. For example, when you enter a domain name such as www.onkyousa.com in your Web browser, before accessing the site, your browser uses DNS to translate this into an IP address, in this case 63.148.251.142.

MAC Address

This is the AV receiver's MAC (Media Access Control) address. This address cannot be changed.

DHCP

Enable
Disable

This setting determines whether or not the AV receiver uses DHCP to automatically configure its IP Address, Subnet Mask, Gateway, and DNS Server settings.

ONKYO TXNR616 - DHCP - 1

To be continued

Note

  • If you select "Disable", you must configure the "IP Address", "Subnet Mask", "Gateway", and "DNS Server" settings yourself.

Class B:

"172.16.0.0" to "172.31.255.255"

Class C:

"192.168.0.0" to "192.168.255.255"

Enter a static IP address provided by your Internet Service Provider (ISP).

Most routers use Class C IP addresses.

Subnet Mask

Enter the subnet mask address provided by your ISP (typically 255.255.255.0).

Gateway

Enter the gateway address provided by your ISP.

DNS Server

Enter the DNS server address provided by your ISP.

Proxy URL

To use a Web proxy, enter its URL here.

Proxy Port

If you're using a Web proxy, enter a proxy port number here.

Network Standby

On

Off

This setting enables or disables control over the network. When enabled, the NET indicator will be dimly-lit while the AV receiver is in standby mode. Note that the indicator may not light under certain conditions ( page 51).

About DTS signals

When DTS program material ends and the DTS bitstream stops, the AV receiver remains in DTS listening mode and the dts indicator remains on. This is to prevent noise when you use the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player. If you switch your player from DTS to PCM, you may not hear any sound because the AV receiver does not switch formats immediately. In such case, you should stop your player for about three seconds and then resume playback.

With some CD and LD players, you won't be able to — playback DTS material properly even though your player is connected to a digital input on the AV receiver. This is usually because the DTS bitstream has been processed (e.g., output level, sampling rate, or frequency response changed) and the AV receiver doesn't recognize it as a genuine DTS signal. In such cases, you may hear noise.

Playing DTS program material, using the pause, fast forward, or fast reverse function on your player may produce a short audible noise. This is not a malfunction.

The beginning of audio received by an HDMI IN can't be heard

Connection Tips and Video Signal Path

The AV receiver supports several connection formats for compatibility with a wide range of AV equipment. The format you choose will depend on the formats supported by your components. Use the following sections as a guide.

The on-screen menus appear only on a TV that is connected to HDMI OUT MAIN. If your TV is connected to other video outputs, use the AV receiver's display when changing settings.

Video Connection Formats

Video components can be connected by using any one of the following video connection formats: composite video, component video, or HDMI, the latter offering the best picture quality.

Tip

  • For optimal video performance, THX recommends that video signals pass through the system without upconversion (e.g., component video input passing through to component video output).
  • To by-pass the upconversion, set the "Picture Mode" setting to "Direct" ( page 61).

"Monitor Out" set to "HDMI Main" or "HDMI Sub"

Video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video and component video sources all being upconverted for the HDMI output. Use these settings if you connect either HDMI OUT MAIN or HDMI OUT SUB of the AV receiver to your TV.

The composite video and component video outputs pass through their respective input signals as they are.

ONKYO TXNR616 - "Monitor Out" set to "HDMI Main" or "HDMI Sub" - 1

Note

  • When composite video and component video sources are upconverted for HDMI OUT SUB, only signals with a resolution

of 480i/576i are output and the resolution remains the same. If your TV doesn't support this resolution, there will be no picture ( page 91).

"Monitor Out" set to "Both"

Video input signals flow through the AV receiver as shown, with composite video and component video sources all being upconverted for both HDMI outputs. Use this setting if you connect both HDMI OUT MAIN and HDMI OUT SUB of the AV receiver to your TV.

Note that video signals are output from both HDMI outputs at the resolution supported by both TVs.

The composite video and component video outputs pass through their respective input signals as they are.

ONKYO TXNR616 - "Monitor Out" set to "Both" - 1
Video Signal Flow Chart

Note

  • When "Monitor Out" is set to "Both", the "Resolution" setting cannot be selected.

Signal Selection

If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will be selected automatically in the following order of priority: HDMI, component video, composite video.

However, for component video only, regardless of whether a component video signal is actually present, if a component video input is assigned to the input selector, that component video input will be selected. And if no component video input is assigned to the input selector, this will be interpreted as no component video signal being present.

In the Signal Selection Example shown below, video signals are present at both the HDMI and composite video inputs. However, the HDMI signal is automatically selected as the source and the video is output by the HDMI outputs.

ONKYO TXNR616 - Signal Selection - 1
Signal Selection Example

Audio Connection Formats

Audio components can be connected by using any of the following audio connection formats: analog, optical, coaxial, or HDMI.

When choosing a connection format, bear in mind that the AV receiver does not convert digital input signals for analog line outputs and vice versa.

If signals are present at more than one input, the inputs will be selected automatically in the following order of priority: HDMI, digital, analog.

  • Linked functions with the AV receiver may not work depending on the component model connected. In such cases, operate the AV receiver directly.

About HDMI

Designed to meet the increased demands of digital TV, HDMI (High Definition Multimedia Interface) is a new digital interface standard for connecting TVs, projectors, Blu-ray Disc/DVD players, set-top boxes, and other video components. Until now, several separate video and audio cables have been required to connect AV components. With HDMI, a single cable can carry control signals, digital video, and up to eight channels of digital audio (2-channel PCM, multichannel digital audio, and multichannel PCM).

The HDMI video stream (i.e., video signal) is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface)*1, so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (This may not work with some TVs and displays, resulting in no picture.)

The AV receiver uses HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) ^2 , so only HDCP-compatible components can display the picture.

The AV receiver's HDMI interface is based on the following: Audio Return Channel, 3D, x.v.Color, DeepColor, Lip Sync, DTS-HD Master Audio, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, DSD and Multichannel PCM.

Supported Audio Formats

2-channel linear PCM (32-192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)
- Multichannel linear PCM (up to 7.1 ch, 32–192 kHz, 16/20/24 bit)
- Bitstream (DSD, Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DTS-HD High Resolution Audio, DTS-HD Master Audio)

Your Blu-ray Disc/DVD player must also support HDMI output of the above audio formats.

The AV receiver supports HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)*2, a copy-protection system for digital video signals. Other devices connected to the AV receiver via HDMI must also support HDCP.

1 DVI (Digital Visual Interface): The digital display interface standard set by the DDWG3 in 1999.
2 HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection): The video encryption technology developed by Intel for HDMI/DVI. It's designed to protect video content and requires a HDCP-compatible device to display the encrypted video.
3 DDWG (Digital Display Working Group): Lead by Intel, Compaq, Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, IBM, NEC, and Silicon Image, this open industry group's objective is to address the industry's requirements for a digital connectivity specification for high-performance PCs and digital displays.

Note

  • The HDMI video stream is compatible with DVI (Digital Visual Interface), so TVs and displays with a DVI input can be connected by using an HDMI-to-DVI adapter cable. (Note that DVI connections only carry video, so you'll need to make a separate connection for audio.) However, reliable operation with such an adapter is not guaranteed. In addition, video signals from a PC are not supported.
  • The HDMI audio signal (sampling rate, bit length, etc.) may be restricted by the connected source component. If the picture is poor or there's no sound from a component connected via HDMI, check its setup. Refer to the connected component's instruction manual for details.

Network/USB Features

Connecting to the Network

The following diagram shows how you can connect the AV receiver to your home network. In this example, it's connected to a LAN port on a router, which has a 4-port 100Base-TX switch built-in.

ONKYO TXNR616 - Connecting to the Network - 1
Computer or media server

Network Requirements

Ethernet Network

For the best results, a 100Base-TX switched Ethernet network is recommended. Although it's possible to play music on a computer that's connected to the network wirelessly, playback may be unreliable, so it is recommended to use wired connections.

Ethernet Router

A router manages the network, data-routing and supplying of IP addresses. Your router must support the following:

  • NAT (Network Address Translation). NAT allows several networked computers to access the Internet simultaneously via a single Internet connection. The AV receiver needs Internet access for Internet radio.
  • DHCP (Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol). DHCP supplies IP addresses to the network devices, allowing them to configure themselves automatically.
  • A router with a built-in 100Base-TX switch is recommended.

Some routers have a built-in modem, and some Internet Service Providers (ISP) require you to use specific routers. Please consult your ISP or computer dealer if you're unsure.

CAT5 Ethernet cable

Use a shielded CAT5 Ethernet cable (straight-type) to connect the AV receiver to your home network.

Internet Access (for Internet radio)

To receive Internet radio, your Ethernet network must have Internet access. A narrowband Internet connection (e.g., 56K modem, ISDN) will not provide satisfactory results, so a broadband connection is strongly recommended (e.g., cable modem, xDSL modem, etc.). Please consult your ISP or computer dealer if you're unsure.

Note

  • To receive Internet radio with the AV receiver, your broadband Internet connection must be working and able to access the Web.

Consult your ISP if you have any problems with your Internet connection.

  • The AV receiver uses DHCP to configure its network settings automatically. If you want to configure these settings manually, see "Network" ( page 67).
  • The AV receiver does not support PPPoE settings, so if you have a PPPoE-type Internet connection, you must use a PPPoE-compatible router.
  • Depending on your ISP, you may need to specify a proxy server to use Internet radio. If your computer is configured to use a proxy server, use the same settings for the AV receiver ( page 68).

Server Requirements

Server playback

The AV receiver can play digital music files stored on a computer or media server and supports the following technologies:

  • Windows Media Player 11
  • Windows Media Player 12
  • Windows Media Connect 2.0
  • DLNA-certified media server

If the operating system of your computer is Windows Vista, Windows Media Player 11 is already installed. Windows Media Player 11 for Windows XP can be downloaded for free from the Microsoft web site.

  • The computer or media server must be on the same network as the AV receiver.
  • Up to 20,000 folders can be displayed, and folders may be nested up to 16 levels deep.

Remote Control Codes

ONKYO TXNR616 - Remote Control Codes - 1

1 While holding down the REMOTE MODE button to which you want to assign a code, press and hold down [DISPLAY] (about 3 seconds).

The REMOTE MODE button/Remote indicator lights.

On Integra products, button names are capitalized. For example, "Remote Mode" button and "Display" button.

Notes:

  • Remote control codes cannot be entered for [RECEIVER] and the multi zone button.
  • Only TV remote control codes can be entered for [TV].
  • Except for [RECEIVER], [TV], and the multi zone button, remote control codes from any category can be assigned for the REMOTE MODE buttons. However, these buttons also work as input selector buttons, so choose a REMOTE MODE button that corresponds with the input to which you connect your component. For example, if you connect your CD player to the CD input, choose [TV/CD] when entering its remote control code.

2 Within 30 seconds, use the number buttons to enter the 5-digit remote control code.

The REMOTE MODE button/Remote indicator flashes twice.

If the remote control code is not entered successfully, the REMOTE MODE button/Remote indicator will flash once slowly.

Notes:

  • The flashing element of the remote controller will differ according to your AV receiver's model.
  • The remote controller is preconfigured with remote controller presets of different components. By entering a code from the Remote Control Code list, you can activate the relevant preset for that component.
  • When there are multiple codes related to one manufacturer, try and enter them one-by-one until it matches your component.
  • Depending on the model and year of your component, compatibility is not guaranteed.
  • With some models, the remote controller may not not work or its compatibility may be limited to part of the component's functionality.
  • Besides, it is not possible to add new codes to the existing remote controller presets.
  • Though the provided remote control codes are correct at the time of printing, they are subject to change by the manufacturer.
